Cycling to work is worse for environment than driving? June 17, 2008

Posted by Al in : bizarre , trackback

Well, who would have thought it? It appears that cycling to work, and all the benefits that the exercise will bring you, could actually be worse for the environment than driving. This is because the increase in lifespan you might gain will cause you to use more electricity and/or  gas, consume more consumable and cause more waste. This totals more damage than the savings you make from being healthy. Strange, but apparently true.
